Annotation: The issues of adaptation of students to the educational environment of the university deserve great interest. The relevance of the problem is due to the need to study and understand the processes of active adaptation and adaptive mechanisms of the body, due to both physical and psychological factors. Physical activity, stress, fatigue of a physical and psychological nature affect the adaptive capabilities of the body. Overstrain of regulatory systems can cause disruption of adaptation with the appearance and development of all kinds of pathological processes and diseases. It was found that adequate reactions of all body systems to various types of loads have a positive effect on the adaptive capabilities of the body, protecting it from the likelihood of an adaptive breakdown. The purpose of the study was the possibility of using functional state con- trol technologies to determine the adaptive capabilities of the students’ body in relation to loads during the educational process. The study involved students of 1–3 courses of the medical University aged 17 to 20 years. The obtained results make it possible to design loads competently and carry out their individual correction in order to plan adequate load regimes during physical education classes and in sports sections for the active forming of adaptive capabilities of the body.

Annotation: This article describes the typological features of the study of the sense of patriotism among police cadets. The author substantiates the need to form a sense of patriotism manifested in the love of their culture: traditions, customs, art of their people. The specifics of the educational process in a departmental educational organization, the order of interaction of an educational institution with public organizations in the forming of patriotism are revealed. The features of the forming of the socio-cultural type of the sense of patriotism are described: the concept, types, research, specifics of upbringing. The article presents the history of the study of the sociocultural type of the sense of patriotism and the scheme of the relationship of the socio-cultural type of the sense of patriotism with other types of the phenomenon under study. The description of promising directions for further research on the subject of fostering a sense of patriotism is given. The problems that have a significant impact on the development of the socio-cultural type of patriotism are listed. The conclusion is made about the importance of revising approaches to patriotic education in pedagogical science, in accordance with the new realities of the modern world existing in a complicated military-economic situation.

Annotation: Among the innovative practices and scientific achievements of pedagogy of the 20th century, A. S. Makarenko’s “optimistic hypothesis” occupies a special place as an approach to a growing personality and a technology for developing its capabilities. The subject of this study is the principle of optimism, which, within the framework of pedagogy, serves for the teacher as a worldview and methodological basis for the formation of educational motivation, academic performance and cognitive interest of students with a focus on their personal growth, selfrealization in educational and pedagogical and personal developmental interaction, and then acts as a meaningful and the technological aspect of creating a situation of success in learning activities. The purpose of the work is to reveal the evolution of the principle of optimism of A.S. Makarenko in the content and technologies for creating a situation of success in educational activities. The methodological basis of the study was the existential and humanistic approaches to joy understanding in the structure of the educational process. The article reveals the pedagogical essence of the principle of optimism in its development and alternations. The connection of the classical method of creating optimistic prospects by A.S. Makarenko and the modern pedagogical system for creating a situation of success developed by A.S. Belkin. Particular attention is paid to the description of variable innovative pedagogical techniques that encourage students to achieve success. The theoretical and methodological provisions of the work can serve as the basis for the development of seminars and practical exercises with elements of training in advanced training courses for teachers.

Annotation: The active digitalization of almost all spheres of modern society has also affected education, which inevitably led to the abandonment of traditional teaching methods in favor of interactive ones aimed not at acquiring knowledge but at turning it into competencies, practical skills, and abilities. To a large extent, the given process was expedited by the change in the teacher’s role, from the classical translator of the knowledge from the textbook to the facilitator, who allows students to concentrate on learning goals and supporting positive motivation in their achievement. One of the most effective methods of interactive learning is the hexagon method, first described by the English history teacher Russell Tarr at the end of the 20th century. However, an analysis of the literature on the problem showed that despite the obvious linguodidactic potential of this method, it is practically not used in higher education. Our study aims to fill the existing gap and prove that the hexagon method is an effective way to develop speech, lexical, and debating skills of students majoring technical specialties.

Annotation: The article raises the problem of the need for scientific research in the work of a teacher within the framework of a taught discipline. This topic, poorly reflected in pedagogical science, is considered on the basis of teaching history in the system of higher and secondary vocational education. The author provides options for controversial historical issues that are unsatisfactorily presented in the educational literature, as well as issues that are not reflected at all in the educational literature or are reflected on the basis of outdated data. Based on the experi- ence of his own teaching, the author introduces the reader to specific examples of research work, the results of which he applies in the classroom, as well as some historical sources that a history teacher can use in scientific activities. At the end of the article, an attempt is made to classify the research activities of a history teacher. The results obtained can be used in the work of a history teacher in the system of higher and secondary vocational education.
